Salon Art + Design Booth B6 7-11 November 2024 Elisabetta Cipriani Gallery is delighted to announce its first participation in the 13th edition of Salon Art + Design 2024, New York. With an eclectic selection of wearable artworks, the gallery is proud to present jewels by world-famous visual artists, as well as experimental creations by exceptional jewellery designers. It will be a unique opportunity for collectors and art enthusiasts to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of wearable art – from classic masterpieces to bold experimentations. Among the twenty artists on display, we are thrilled to launch an exclusive collaboration with incredible American artist Michele Oka Doner. The collection comprises five one-of-a-kind Winter Branch brooches, a bronze Talisman pendant, a sculptural necklace, Nightflight, adorned with huit-huit old cut diamonds, and a treasure box, Mitosis, in limited edition. The pieces reverberate with the talismanic elemental energy that distinguishes Oka Doner’s practice and places it among the most magnetic and evocative works in contemporary art. Meticulously crafted in bronze, old-cut diamonds, 18kt gold, silver, and electroformed bark – a beautiful piece of wood that she retrieved from the Hudson River upstate many years ago –, each piece serves not only as an […]

Gold and Lines: The Design of Giampaolo Babetto “Each time I make a jewel it’s a new challenge because I know that what I create is meant to be worn and cohabit with the body.” – Giampaolo Babetto Elisabetta Cipriani Gallery is thrilled to present an unprecedented selection of jewels by Giampaolo Babetto. Gold and Lines: The Design of Giampaolo Babetto, will open at the gallery on the 10th of October and run until the 18th of October. Collectors, friends, and art jewellery enthusiasts are invited to our opening on the 10th of October from 5 to 8 pm. As one of the most influential exponents of the Padua goldsmith school and avant-garde jewellery since the 1960s, Babetto has redefined the concept of art jewellery worldwide. The exhibition features thirteen unique works conceived from the 1970s to the present. The works include rings, earrings, necklaces, brooches, and a bracelet – gold corporeal architectures that come alive through the incorporation of ethereal and vibrant materials such as colourful glass, niello, ebony, and velvet-like pigments of luminous primary colours. The pieces are geometrical kaleidoscopic compositions that possess their own life and create a symbiotic and unique aesthetic relationship with the wearer’s body. […]

After showing alongside the Venice Biennale in April, London jewelry gallerist Elisabetta Cipriani’s latest exhibition on home soil opens today; Constellazioni, a solo show of the work of Italian artist Giorgio Vigna charts a creative career spanning four decades. by Kate Matthams, Senior Contributor at Forbes Read

“My work and research are situated on a boundary, a margin, between reality and imagination. Throughout my exploration, this boundary expands and creates a suspended space-time where time is subjective and space is imaginary. It is within this suspension that new “natural states” of matter and form can emerge and manifest. The micro and the macrocosm intertwine – the large and the small, the light and the heavy, the solid and the liquid, the cold and the hot. They interchange positions and generate artworks that ask us to suspend our biases and preconceptions.”  Elisabetta Cipriani Gallery is thrilled to announce its major exhibition of Giorgio Vigna’s ever-evolving work – Costellazioni, 29 May – 5 July 2024.   Celebrating fifteen years of exciting collaborations between Giorgio Vigna and the gallery, the exhibition will feature 50 pieces, including wearable artworks, sculptures, and works on paper made from the 1980s to the present.   Costellazioni is not a retrospective; it is a storytelling of over four decades of Vigna’s transformative material poetry, resulting in stunning pieces that achieve the perfect balance between materials, forms, and concepts.   The works are a statement of Vigna’s experimental and metamorphic artistic research. At the forefront are his wearable sculptures, alongside Cosmografie (Cosmographies), the works on […]
